RE: Why do dog owners think it`s o.k to let their dogs crap all over the footpath???

This is a pet hate (no pun intended) of mine where i used to live we had two bits of grass that people would let there dogs foul,some of them residents in the street,I told them politely if they did not clean it up I would report them to the council which in the end I did.The council would not put up signs,I did.

There was one persistent offender who let his dog foul as I was coming out to go to work he tried to walked away and leave it,I politely pointed out if he did not clean it up I would rub his nose in it (not the dogs his) I gave him a carrier bag and waited till he cleaned it up,never had any more from his dog,shame about the rest.

If you have a dog let it Crap in your own garden,Oh! and fields are not toilets either.
While I`m on a rant all these animal and dog lovers why do you have a big stick to beat the hell out of any dog that comes near yours,dog lovers i`ve s*** them ah thats where I came in.

RE: Brake Caliper Return Springs for Ford Focus!

Are you sure?I have never seen return springs on brake callipers on any of the cars I have had though not a Focus.If you are concerned just check with your local ford dealer,or ask at Halfords,they can soon check for you on the parts computer ask them if you can have a look at the screen (don`t ask when they are busy) I have always found them helpful though others may disagree.

RE: Advice for first time buyer please!

Hi JohnnyTV,just something for you to ask about before you buy, as you are going to be using the property as a business address,(work from home) this could affect your mortgage,insurance etc,and a lot of propertys have no business use in the covenants in the deeds.

RE: Leaking washing machine: help*

Hi James I changed one on a Ariston washer years ago and from what I can remember it was a bit of a pig to do,but still in the realms of DIY.
If you can see the hole in the seal (usually in the fold) you can stick a patch on from a bicycle repair kit, being careful to fully prepare the area first,mine lasted two years before I had to change the seal.
hope this is of some help to you.

RE: Should I find this insulting?

I know what you mean had one in my truck now about 10 months or so,I also have a crane (lorry loader) fitted and it monitors when you are using the crane,if you have the engine idling and no activity,where you have been,where you are,when you stopped and for how long,used with your delivery sheets 15 drops should be 15 stops, I was told by the man who fitted mine that if they connect everything up to the device they can tell when you fart ho! ho!.Idling times are a bugbear with me just had one for 24 minutes trouble is the truck was 40miles away getting repaired (and I was in a hire vehicle) but as its the truck I drive its seen as me at fault.(They want zero idling time) though I have about 2 minutes every morning building air tanks up so I can get the brakes off.
I work for a builders merchant and yes now they do have the J----- lot. :D

RE: Homes `to cost ten times salary`

Hi sultan
Quote:
"BTW...a guy on my street bought another home @300K, a few years ago,
Now he has sold it making a profit of 80K.

All this while claiming benefits, where his children eat free school meals because he is supposedly on "low income"/disability.

Such people make me sick as I work hard and have to pay for everything. It makes me even more sick as he appears to be getting away with it with no-one from the benefit fraud office knowing what he has done."

easy solution report him yourself

RE: printing on cd

Hi coke_dude I have a canon printer and the cd printing software is one of the best I have used currently using version 1.21 CD Labelprint.
Select your background picture,click on background trim,then you can drag and resize the image to your hearts content when done click on OK.
You can also change the centre circle size when you print on full face discs.
hope this helps you.
